Section 168

On the third day of the first issue of Voices of Freedom, 40,000 copies were distributed.

Again, Annan used a different strategy than the North, increasing the price of the Magic Newspaper from 10 copper coins to 1 silver coin.

This brings a lot of ...... to Liberty City The proceeds of 400 gold coins. Throw away the cost, there are also 300 gold coins!

But the magical newspaper brought more fame to Liberty City than magical images. If the magic image made Annan, then the magic newspaper made the Liberty City.

What is the cost...... In order to deliver the magic newspaper to the towns in time, Annan was filled with a magic potion into a water bladder.

Annan held his stomach and said to Evelyn: "In the second phase, we will return to normal, just like when we were in Starmoon Bay. ”

The first issue is all about Liberty City, and readers will find it fresh, but doing so in the second and third installments will only make "Voices of Freedom" lose its foundation. Outside Wilhelm is packed with countries and territories, coups, wars, brothers' walls, and there is never a shortage of news.

"Got it."

Evelyn passed by Annan with her hands behind her back, suddenly slapped him on the stomach a few times, turned and ran away.

Abby, the maid who came in, looked at Evelyn, who ran out, and Annan, who was angry, and said that Claire was visiting.

It's the witch who lives in Evelyn's tavern, has a white cat, and is keen to cook.

Annan came to the living room, and Claire was holding her white cat, and today her black cloak did not have a trace of cat hair.

"I've traveled to Middle-earth, and now I'm going back."

"Back to the Witch's House?"

Claire shook her head: "I have a younger brother who makes many mistakes...... I wanted to stop meddling in his affairs, but the beauty of your place made me decide...... I need to stop him. ”

"Need help?"

Annan had a good impression of the girl he had come into contact with a few timesβ€”she did not have the gloom and retreat of a witch, but had the wisdom of a mage.

"Then let's build Liberty City better, and I will bring my younger brother with me in the future."

Watching Claire leave with the white cat on her back and her baggage, Annan continued to be busy with the afterglow of the magical newspaper.

The first issue of "Voices of Freedom" succeeded in establishing the identity of the victims of Liberty City, although some nobles ridiculed Liberty City as a city of exiles, such as the emissaries of the Duchy of Keating, but it was better to ignore it.

The Mad Dog Grand Duke next door is much more miserable. Most of the people who blamed him for his atrocities were ordinary people, and the nobles were more concerned about the fact that the Mad Dog Archduke had seized the duchy as a non-heir and killed other heirs, which touched the scale of almost all the nobles.

No one wants their heirs to be bloodied all day long – the eldest should inherit the title, and the younger one should go out and fight for the honor of the family.

Even the nobles who supported him recalled their privates - they could have pretended not to know about this, but the magic newspaper let everyone know, and they had to "know".

And - the title of Mad Dog Archduke spread in Middle-earth with the magical newspaper.

……

Duchy of Keating, the city of trade.

The twin ministers are sitting in the cabinet hall and discussing.

"I didn't know they cared so much about politics."

"You're wrong, Burke, they don't care at all, they just want to make themselves look like."

"Why?"

"Whatever you say will be liked by the people, why be silent?"

"No wonder Anil jumped out, I always thought he was dumb."

"Magic Newspaper...... What a beautiful counterattack. Susan's spinning machine, magic images, magic newspapers...... How did he come up with it? ”

"You're missing something, Franning, the Fast pants are already all the rage at the bottom. That's where I wondered, they were so good, why did you allow Peterson to talk nonsense? ”

"The Duchy of Keating can't have just one voice...... In this country, even the ministers are 'twin ministers'. ”

After Franking finished speaking, he looked at the "young" Home Secretary with a look on his face that seemed to understand whether he understood or not.

……

The trembling servant knocked on the door of the increasingly irritable Grand Duke.

A sinister whisper came from behind the door: "I'm resting, and I'll cut my mouth when I'm done." ”

"Great, Arch, there is ...... There is ...... "The frightened maid cannot speak completely."

"I've changed my mind, you'd better die-"

"You're too irritable with the servant, Gilles." A gentle female voice sounded outside the door, and the door was pushed open, "Remember how the etiquette teacher taught us?" ”

The Mad Dog Grand Duke raised his head in surprise, saw the figure standing at the door and the dark gray eyes that were still fresh in his memory, and called out complicatedly: "Sister." ”

"Stand down."

Claire lets the crying maid go and puts down the white cat.

"Not many people are on your side anymore, don't you realize?"

"They're a bunch of rubbish who see the wind and steer the rudder!" The mad dog archduke's emotions, which were relieved by seeing his sister, got out of control again: "After I take control of the principality, I will clean everyone up!" ”

"Do you remember your old self? You said you were going to lead the people to happiness, but now it's you who have deprived them of everything...... Gilles, what about your ideals? ”

It seems to remember the beautiful mad dog Grand Duke of the past and was stunned: "I left it far away......"

"You're no longer fit to lead a principality!"

A fat silhouette suddenly squeezed into the bedroom, letting out a low roar that shook the bedroom:

"You betrayed Dahl Frank, let David Swan die, gave our people to the enemy, and now you have everything exposed! Gilles, I will tell all the nobles to get them to support Giraldi! ”

"And you! You, the who has been disgraced by the Montabullock family, are no longer hiding everywhere? ”

The mad dog archduke came to the fat nobleman: "My uncle, you can't do this, because ...... The dead cannot command the living. ”

"Whoaβ€”"

The fat nobleman's eyes suddenly widened, and he weakly grasped the dagger inserted into his chest, and fell to the ground in a dull manner.

"At least you still love my sister......" Claire said in a complicated tone.

The mad dog Grand Duke squatted down and pulled out his dagger: "You go to rest first, I'll call you at night." ”

"I'll advise you to turn back......"

Claire bowed her head, turned around with the white cat in her arms, and suddenly froze in place.

The white cat lying on her chest suddenly let out a sharp meow and leaped out of its arms, its fur dyed scarlet and escaping the room, like the last light escaping the darkness......

The silhouette of the evil demon emerged from the corner, and he looked with fear at the mad dog archduke who knelt in front of Claire and looked like a demon more than himself.

"The treasure given by the master needs to be activated by the mad blood of the same origin as mine."

The Mad Dog Grand Duke gently stroked Claire's forehead, held the dagger, and slowly pushed the dagger into her eyebrows: "That person can't be me, so it can only be you...... My sister. ”

Claire was out of breath, only those eyes staring sadly at the Mad Dog Archduke.
